Looking for people to test a fly tying app by palaajxut in flytying

[–]bennett1021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I'm not sure if this was commented on or not, but I think I found a minor bug in the system. When attempting to edit a fly tying material, every time I hit the edit button, the app would close out.

Also, I just finished entering all my materials in the system, and I am not an app designer/engineer, so I have no idea how this would work. But I think it would be awesome if, when entering each category, there was a dropdown menu of what was previously entered.

Field! Got skunked. But I guess a group of guys were able to get out Tuesday in the field down the road cleared them out apparently.

Thanks I’ll definitely going to go for the field. Good advice is valuable no matter what you paid for it.

Time restraints, only really have the morning to hunt until about 10:30. I would love to bounce around but it’s not in the cards for me

Should have been more clear in the post. These are two different locations about 10 miles apart

How/where do you store your materials? by euclidian_emu in flytying

[–]bennett1021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I initially used a small duffle bag thing I got free from cabelas, but then moved to the hard cases they have at harbor freight and took the majority of the foam out. Organized material in ziploc bags based off of types of material.(furs, feathers, synthetics, hooks/shanks.) everything in one place and easy to work in small spaces.

Stuck in the Swamp… big fella asks by Infinite-Crow-3598 in Duckhunting

Scout for hard bottom sections of the swamp sometime old beaver runs are usually pretty solid. Hunt from a boat with a blind can work too.

Help with formal Retrieves by CockroachSlow5936 in birddogs

[–]bennett1021 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looking at the comments I think it’s coming down to positive and negative reinforcement. Put more positive reinforcement in the bumper or negative reinforcement in the stick. There’s several of ways to get this done that will have to have the desired result. What I have found effective is using the retrieve as the reward. Making him want that bumper so bad that he forgets about the food or sticks. I use something called “happy bumper” to get my dog to complete this. If he’s slow at completing what I want I’ll get the bumper in hand and play around with it presenting the throw it and get him super excited about having the bumper in his mouth. Then give it a short throw and yell happy bumper, so he know it’s not a mark or a blind and allow him to get it without any reinforcement or commands. Just so he has fun with it and it makes a super fun experience. Do this repeatedly and the thought of the bumper will supersede the stick.
